Subaru roof rack brackets
27 comments:
Hey man, what are the LxWxH measurements on these? I'm thinking of getting them for use on my (non-Subaru) car. Also, is $75 for 4 of them? Thx so much!ReplyDelete
What car will they be going on? Yes $75 for a set. Email me directly to talk.ReplyDelete
For what year STi can these fit on and what Yakima landing pads would I need to install these with?ReplyDeleteReplies
2002-2007, #11 landing pads.Delete
will you be making anymore of these?ReplyDeleteReplies
Yes, email me and I will send you an email once I have them in stock. Should be within a few weeks.Delete
Hello I am very interested in these. I was just wondering if you could verify if these will fit my current situation. I have a 2007 Impreza sedan if I replace my brackets with these and then purchase the "Control tower system" by yakima http://www.yakima.com/fit/Review?configuratorType=Yakima Is this everything I would need to have my roof rack attached instead of with the clips?ReplyDeleteReplies
Yes, these will work with the control towers. It is pretty much all you need to replace the clip version. You reuse your cross bars.Delete
Thank you very much I have been looking for an alternative to the clip style for months! These look great and I cant wait to order some!ReplyDelete
Will these work for a 2001 Impreza L?ReplyDeleteReplies
From what I've been told, they work. I've had a few RS coupe and RS Sedan guys order them.Delete
Just stumbled across this item as I research rack options for a 2015 WRX. Apparently they have done away with the mounting points on the new body, but they still have the channel in the roof. I am considering using your piece to mount the pre-2015 WRX rack to the 2015.ReplyDelete
Yes it is a shame they've changed that about the new body. I think these would work well still. There's a bit you may have to do to get them perfect, but I believe they would work out nonetheless. You would ultimately also need nuts to go along with the kit, and this is something I can start providing if necessary for a bit extra. I am offering people 15% off the cost of the brackets if they are able to post a DIY and document the process with pics and instructions.Delete
Thanks for the quick response Hector. I'm not sure that anyone claiming the mounts are no longer on the roof have actually checked (pulled back the black trim strip). Maybe we'll get lucky and see them, but perhaps they are right and none exist. If they don't exist, I am okay with drilling and mounting a set, and I would be happy to document the process along the way.Delete
I don't have my car yet (I think it just hit the port today, in fact), but when I have it, I will start digging into it and contact you with what I find.
Thanks - Greg

Just got confirmation from someone with the 2015 on hand that the roof channels do not have a rack mount beneath the trim, so one would need to drill the roof/channel to install the mounts. I am curious (still) to know what the inside of the roof looks like. Wondering if there is a suitable flat surface beneath the channel for the bolt/nut to go through and attach to.ReplyDelete
I wish I could just weld something to it, but the paint would probably get fried on the roof if I did...Replies
There should be a flat enough surface for the brackets. The regular roof itself is not completely flat. I wouldn't try welding because you'd have to grind away paint first to do so.Delete
Also, out of curiosity, is there a reason for making these in ss over alu?ReplyDeleteReplies
With aluminum, they would need to be anodized. Also using SS hardware with alu will cause galvanic corrosion. Simple decision to use 300 series stainless with stainless hardware. You can email me direct for any questions. Thanks!Delete
Can I order overseas?ReplyDeleteReplies
Yes you can. I have only 1 left currently, but email me for more information.Delete
If I mount these on my 2006 2.5i imprez sedan, can I fit the impreza wagon racks??ReplyDelete
Let me know asap, im interested in them firstname.lastname@example.com
Hi. Do u have a set for 2012 Lexus CT200h?ReplyDeleteReplies
I don't make any specifically for the CT200H (my wife has the same car), but I have seen my brackets used for other vehicles by drilling and bolting them to the roof.Delete
I have a 2015 wrx. What ever happened about does it work for this year or not and are these still available?ReplyDeleteReplies
They work for the 2015 with a custom install, browse the forums for the write-ups. I am still selling, just waiting to restock. Should have some soon. Check back in a week or so.Delete
Are these still available for purchase?ReplyDelete

We all know it: climate change is happening. It's happening faster and more catastrophically than we can imagine, and it will likely lead to the planet's destruction, or at the very least the extinction of humankind. But talking about global warming's a real downer. Empty Deck's slippery, multilayered and fragmented show tackles the difficulties of staring the inconvenient truth in the face when irony and anxiety pervade the millennial consciousness.
The theatrical game it uses draws on pop culture: Brad Pitt finds himself cast as the unlikely potential saviour of the ecosystem in a series of surreal fantasies that the characters dream up onstage. The Hollywood star feels driven by a sudden angst about the impending climate apocalypse to take action through the medium of a green-spirited blockbuster. Brad becomes both a hero and an everyman as the three performers project their own fears and fantasies onto him – imagining Brad in meetings with skeptical Hollywood producers, and eventually venturing through the wilderness to live in a tent.
The talented young company take on Danish writer Christian Lollike's play with real inventiveness and vigour, combining livestreamed iPhone footage with a series of comic costume and character changes. The performers have a terrific ensemble connection and navigate Lollike's layered text with focused, comic virtuosity.
This playful theatricality and fast wit prevents the show from coming off as preachy, but beneath the deadpan role play is a real urgency, subtly skewering our desire to look away from the greatest threat facing humanity.

"Our school property was much in need of shade," says Omaha, NE, parent Sarah Newman. "While doing some Internet research on trees, I discovered the American Forests: Famous and Historic Trees catalog, which features young trees representing important people and events from the past." Sarah and classroom teachers considered how they might integrate such trees into their social studies and other curricula, then chose appropriate subjects for each grade: a Johnny Appleseed apple tree for kindergarten, a President Lincoln log cabin oak for first grade, and a pecan used by local Indians as a "marker tree" for fourth grade, for example.
"Arbor Day seemed like a perfect opportunity for launching this project and building our own and community awareness of trees," says Sarah. Students envisioned a community celebration, with each grade taking responsibility for part of the event. Reading, writing, and research were requisite. During the well-promoted celebration, each grade planted its piece of history, then showcased the activity they'd planned. Kindergartners made time capsules and buried them near their apple tree. Older grades did tree-related readings. Sixth graders filmed a video about trees, complete with background music, tree wisdom, and whimsical scenes. Older kids also gave tours of the school garden and neighborhood trees using a map they'd developed.
The celebrations culminated with an Arbor Day fair featuring a student-created tree game; crafts, such as tree branches covered with tissue paper flowers (representing forced buds); a giveaway of seedlings donated by a local natural resource agency; a birdhouse sale; and a video showcase featuring "The Man Who Planted Trees" and American Forests' "Silent Trees." "Planning for and executing the event was a big deal for kids and a great way to engage the community," explains Sarah.
Consider how you could use Arbor Day and Earth Day (April 22) as a focal point for tree-related projects. Each state also has its own official Arbor Day, which is listed on the National Arbor Day Foundation Web site:

Celebrities Without Makeup – Differences between Reel and Real
Have you ever wondered how celebrities without makeup look? On screen, celebrities look perfect, with not an ounce of extra fat or a wrinkle in sight. They seem to be born with symmetrical features and beautiful skin. Their hair is always in place; it looks like it has never seen a bad hair day. Behind all the gloss and shine, lies the real face of the celebrities. A comparison of celebrity photographs with and without makeup gives us a glimpse of the real person underneath the layers of pancake.
Hollywood Star – Jennifer Lawrence Without Makeup
This promising young actress wowed us with her performances in The Hunger Games and Winter's Bone. Her beautiful eyes mesmerize the audience with their intensity. She appears to have flawless, creamy skin and a figure that will make most women go green with envy. However, beneath all the makeup, she appears to look just like you and me! Fresh-faced and tousled hair, she could easily be mistaken to be the girl-next-door.
Celebrity – Lady Gaga Without Makeup
Known for her whacky sense of style and heavy makeup, Lady Gaga, the celebrity, with no makeup is completely unrecognizable. Her creativity and outrageous sense of fashion ensures that she looks very different without her makeup artists around her. Her face looks paler and her eyebrows are scant. She is ever the princess of reinvention, changing the color of her hair and altering her eye makeup.
Hollywood Star – Mila Kunis Without Makeup
Joining other celebrities without make up is, Mila Kunis, who was hailed as the "Sexiest Woman Alive" in 2013. Her smokey eyes give her an exotic look that simply takes your breath away. But, when bare-faced, she loses the sultriness and sensuousness that she is famous for. This startling change reminds you of the magic of makeup.
Bollywood Star – Deepika Padukone Without Makeup
India's popular Bollywood celebrity girl, Deepika Padukone, joins the list of celebrities without makeup, in this picture showing her elegance and style. Her dimpled smile and almond-shaped large eyes give her an extremely cute face. Her clear and glowing complexion is to die for. Here, Deepika Padukone without makeup, looks so much like the girl-next-door that she could almost be your neighbor! Her face loses its healthy glow and looks quite dull and tired.
Hollywood Celebrity – Kristen Stewart Without Makeup
Twilight Saga star Kristen is a very pretty actress with a slender body. She is known for her tomboy fashion sense and no-frills dressing. Sadly, this hollywood star without makeup looks exhausted. Her skin looks far from flawless and her hair looks unkempt. Her casual attire does not help, either.
Hollywood Celebrity – Cameron Diaz Without Makeup
This blue-eyed beauty has delighted men and women alike with her amazing sense of style and her acting prowess. Cameron Diaz pictures without makeup reflects her age though. She looks old and haggard, with the lines and wrinkles clearly visible. Her eyes do not lose their beauty, though. Mesmerizing as ever, her eyes could make you go all dreamy.
Hollywood Celebrity – Natalie Portman Without Makeup
Hollywood stars without makeup are not a pretty sight usually but Natalie Portman without makeup is still a beauty. Her flawless skin looks fresh and youthful. Her natural glow ensures that she is truly the goddess she is proclaimed to be. Her refreshing looks add to her confidence and poise.
Hollywood Celebrity – Katie Holmes Without Makeup
Hollywood stars without makeup do not look pleased to be photographed. Katie Holmes without makeup looks old and her skin appears spotted without makeup. Add to that unruly hair, and you have all the ingredients to look like a plain Jane.
Pop Star Celebrity – Miley Cyrus Without Makeup
Another super popular pop star celebrity Miley Cyrus without makeup, still looks pretty. Fresh-faced, with clear skin and sparkling eyes, every inch of her still looks like she is twenty-one years old.
Reel life vs. Real life
Stars without makeup look like us in real life; it just happens that we don't see them that often without a hint of makeup like pancake. Celebrities are often ridden by insecurities, and the pressure of looking young and beautiful all the time causes them to hide behind makeup. But underneath it all, they are just like you and me!

Afternoon Paper:
Sex, Longing, and Belonging: Clinical Implications

Today casts a long dark shadow of the shocking loss of our dear colleague — and my personal friend — Jeremy Safran. It's especially hard to put into words what this loss means because it is so fresh, and because Jeremy was so important in many aspects of our lives as a psychoanalyst, an author, a researcher, a Buddhist practitioner, a teacher, and a human being. I will miss him keenly.
And I am writing here, not only for myself, but for the community of mental health professionals that Jeremy has influenced in Vermont through his presentations and his research, especially the Vermont Association for Psychoanalytic Studies, the Gibbard Lecture Series at the University of Vermont, and the Vermont Institute for the Psychotherapies where his presentations, writings, and personal relationships have made an enduring impact. Jeremy was an original thinker and a unique leader among Relational Psychoanalysts, not simply because he was a Buddhist and a psychoanalyst, but also because he had "come over" to our side after having been a very successful practitioner, researcher, and author in Cognitive Psychology.
Jeremy's contributions resonated with the breadth of his experience and also expressed his sense of humor and his deep interest in simply living. When he took over Hans Strupps's seminal research on the curative factors and the role of conflict in psychoanalytic therapy, I was so happy because I knew that Jeremy would carry on in the venerable tradition of Strupp. Indeed, that was true and Jeremy's work even exceeded my high expectations for it. It's almost impossible to believe he is now gone and that his work will be carried forth by someone else.
I don't recall exactly how or when I met Jeremy, but I believe it was in the late 1990s. He and I began to collaborate and to share our experiences very quickly, and I found him to be a person of great integrity and a scholar of great accomplishment. Soon we were collaborating on putting together the first program of Enlightening Conversations at New York University in 2007. Over 550 people attended and, in large part, the success of that conference related to Jeremy working closely with those of us who met as a Planning Board at Tricycle Foundation. After that beginning, Jeremy also came up to Vermont where he was a keynote speaker for the Vermont Association for Psychoanalytic Studies and the presenter for the prestigious Annual Gibbard Lecture at the University of Vermont Department of Psychiatry. In all of these capacities, Jeremy was engaged, lively, intelligent, generous, funny, and warm. He was able to draw on his own vulnerabilities and humanity, as much as his research and knowledge.
In all the ways I have known Jeremy, and I believe this is true for all of us who have been influenced by his contributions in Vermont, he has been an extraordinary teacher. He stuck with the things he started and he dug deep into whatever the project meant. It is hard for me to imagine the endeavors of Relational Psychoanalysis and the Buddhist-Psychoanalytic dialogues going forward without Jeremy. What a tragic end to an extraordinary life.
-Polly Young-Eisendrath
The Vermont Association for Psychoanalytic Studies (VAPS) is a local chapter of Division 39 of the American Psychological Association. Division 39, called the Division of Psychoanalysis, was formed by the APA specifically to represent within the broad field of psychology, professionals who identify themselves as having a major commitment to the study, practice and development of psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy. In such a spirit the Vermont Association for Psychoanalytic Studies has for over twenty years provided a forum for local professionals interested in psychoanalytic ideas. Our organization has grown from a small interdisciplinary group of committed therapists who sponsored one annual conference per year with an outside speaker/guest in the 1980's, to a society of nearly one hundred members with several speaker events per year, an annual meeting, several active committees, and election of officers. We hope that this Website will keep our members informed about and connected to the growth and activities of our energetic organization.

It's Earth Day, and here's a list of 18 spectacularly wrong predictions made around the time of the first Earth Day in 1970.
According to The New York Times, FBI Director James Comey went public with information about the bureau's investigation into Hillary Clinton because he believed Attorney General Loretta Lynch was in the tank for Clinton.
Donald Trump fired Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy, an Obama appointee. Murthy founded a group called "Doctors for Obama" that advocated restrictions on the Second Amendment.
North Carolina's State Board of Elections audited the 2016 general election and determined that 508 ineligible voters cast ballots. Most of the ineligible votes were cast by active felons, although 24 ballots were cast by people who voted multiple times. Not all counties were included in the audit, so the actual number would be higher.
Mexican marines fought a battle with the Gulf Cartel in the border city of Reynosa, eventually killing the cartel's leader in that city. Dozens of vehicles and at least four buildings burned during the battle.
A leader of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, Frauke Petry, tried to steer the party toward a more moderate course during a party congress in Cologne and failed. Instead the AfD appears to moving further right.
Qatar's government reportedly paid millions in ransom to Kata'ib Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed Shiite militia, to free roughly two dozen Qatari citizens who were held hostage in Iraq.
The death toll in the Taliban attack on an Afghan military headquarters in Balkh province is now more than 140. NATO troops are often present at this base, but none were killed or injured.

|Heyy Babyy (2007) & its inspirations.
Sajid Khan's directorial debut "Heyy Baby", was a fairly entertaining movie, taking inspirations from more than one film. Till the entry of Vidya Balan, the story keeps following "Three Men & A Baby" (1987) tightly and after that it changes the path to a different angle in the script. In between it also takes some sequences from Jackie Chan's "Rob B Hood" (2006) where again a child is there with 3 friends.
Interestingly "Three Men & A Baby" itself was a remake of French movie called "3 Hommes Et Un Couffin" released in 1985.

Limit scripts that use @include *.facebook.com/* to stop the increasing fake scripts
There's a lot of fake scripts that do something with facebook. For example, you search "Youtube hide watched videos", and there's five scripts with no ratings or very bad ratings that are probably fake.
Determining how they are fake is pretty easy, going to the source code and you seeing @include *.facebook.com/* in a script that shouldn't.
I know that moderating those scripts takes a lot of people, so I thought that it would be best to limit scripts that @include facebook, by giving a waring in the description (like "This scripts modifies facebook", etc), or something along those lines.4 votes
Fix the meta tag quotes so that Facebook can parse them.
Currently, if you share a userscript on Facebook, Facebook will fail to fetch page title and description.
I believe this is because you use single (') quotes instead of double (") quotes.
I'm aware that single quotes are valid in HTML, but I can't figure out other cause to that problem.1 vote

Display/auto-insert license
When uploading a new userscript or editing its metadata, you're prompted to select a license from a pulldown. However, this license doesn't actually appear anywhere on the script's page, unless a @license field is in the script's metadata block. If a script is uploaded without a @license field, the site should still display the license from the selected pulldown, and either warn the user that there's no '@license' field in the metadata block, or add one (semi-)automatically using the value in the pulldown (possibly better for consistency).2 votes
Make the "Install" button use HTTPS finally
GreaseMonkey requires the script to be _installed_ using HTTPS, otherwise the updating function is disabled.
Unlike Scriptish which only requires setting of @downloadURL and @updateURL, GreaseMonkey ignores @downloadURL and has its own memory of where the script was installed from.
If a script was installed from userscripts.org, GreaseMonkey will grey out the "Check for updates" option. If I copy the same URL that's under the "Install" button, but replace "http://" with "https://", the same script will now have updating enabled (both manual and automatic).
On userscripts.org in the installtion instructions, you're still suggesting using GreaseMonkey and no mention of Scriptish. I'm amazed why to this day, you're intentionally disabling GM's updating facilities.
And on this very page, the most voted "feature" (which is planned?) is auto-updater for scripts!

Researchers Using Dog Cancer Drug Against Kids' Brain Cancer
Could the antidote for glioblastoma, one of the deadliest forms of brain cancer, in children be a current treatment for dogs? That's what researchers at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City are trying to figure out. According to an article in The Kansas City Star, it could be.
Researchers for human or animal health have often worked separately. However, a collaboration between the two could lead to remarkable results. The Kansas City Area Life Sciences Institute brought together over 300 scientists and student-researchers to coordinate efforts on immunotherapy for cancer treatments. That matchmaking birthed a relationship between Children's Mercy and Elias Animal Health, a Missouri company testing immunotherapy treatments for osteosarcoma in dogs at the veterinary health centers at Kansas State University and the University of Missouri. According to the article, protocols for glioblastoma are in development. Children's Mercy and Elias Animal Health are planning to apply for a Phase 2 trial with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Glioblastoma kills about 60%-70% of kids within two years, even when treated with standard care like chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. The hope for the success of this partnership is immense; both the human and veterinary angles have something to offer. Pre-clinical human studies are often conducted with mice are cost-effective but those with higher order species like dogs offer more predictable results. Animal health studies cost less and move more quickly than government-regulated human trials.
Please click here to read more about this possible groundbreaking partnership and please share it with your friends, family, and colleagues on social media.

human trafficking, social media, Facebook, Twitter, social change
Human trafficking is one of the greatest sources of crime in the world, second only to the drug trade. Modern day slavery isn't just an issue abroad, though, it happens in the United States every day. Public relations experts are calling social media the next big industry secret, but can it tackle social issues this big? Social media is a cheap alternative to traditional public relations tactics that are too costly for nonprofit organizations, but it might not be the best way to create the lasting change they are looking for. In this study, I tested how I could use social media to show college students that human trafficking is happening in their backyards and they have the tools to end it at their fingertips. I posted photos, videos, infographics, quotes, articles, and information about anti-trafficking organizations daily for two months on Facebook and Twitter and monitored likes, shares, favorites, and retweets. At the end of the study, I encouraged followers to take a survey that asked about their engagement with the posts on social media and their actions offline regarding the information. I hope that other researchers will continue this work so we can understand the effectiveness of this industry trend.

Just some of the must-do's include pouring a pint of the 'black stuff' at the Guinness Storehouse, viewing the Book of Kells, and people watching on Grafton Street from Bewley's Cafe.
Stay at Croke Park hotel or Similar or hand selected Bed and Breakfast
What doesn't Antrim have to offer? This northern county is home to the vibrant Belfast city, the unforgettable hexagonal landscape of the Giant's Causeway, the delectable Bushmills whiskey distillery, and so much more. Road trip along the Northern coastline to take in the quaint seaside towns, rocky inlets, sweeping beaches, and crumbling castles, then come back to the 'big smoke' of Ulster (that's Belfast by the way) for culture, culinary delights, and plenty of craic.
Stay at The Wellington Park Hotel or Similar or hand selected Bed and Breakfast
County Derry is one of the most up and coming places in all of Ireland, not least because of it's crowning glory, the city of Derry itself. Walk along the medieval walls of the city (one of the best examples of its kind in all of Europe), get a feel for the troubled past with a wander through the Bogside area, and investigate the impressive architecture of the Guildhall and the city's two cathedrals.
Donegal is one of the most beautiful, unspoilt, isolated parts of the whole island. If you want to get away from it all and experience this country at its best, Donegal is where to go. Surfing fans will adore the beach town of Bundoran, while outdoor adventurers will find everything they need at the breathtaking Glenveagh National Park and indoorsy types will find plenty of cosy pubs in Letterkenny and Donegal Town.
Stay at The Sandhouse Hotel or Similar or hand selected Bed and Breakfast
Westmeath is home to one of the most important ancient sites in Ireland; the Hill of Uisneach, long associated with the Celtic festival celebrating the arrival of summer, Bealtaine. Apart from that, Westmeath is largely an agricultural county with neatly bordered fields dotted with cows and sheep stretching for miles in every direction. The bustling market towns of Athlone and Mullingar are also worth a look, filled with lively pubs, busy shops and cosy cafes.

Jews For Jesus News
Still rooting for Jesus!
Last month David Brickner mentioned the enthusiasm people demonstrate over the political candidates and sports favorites. Too bad your RealTime editor does not know enough about sports to have known that the Super Bowl was in Glendale, Arizona, within easy distance of our Phoenix branch. I'd have asked you to pray for our outreach. At any rate, here's the news:
Phoenix outpost leader Bruce Rapp reports, Twelve volunteers from two messianic congregations and one church joined Jews for Jesus to hand out broadsides at the Super Bowl. We also took along our '1-800-Messiah banner,' holding it for all to see as people continuously streamed past us on their way to the game. We were thankful that God held back the rain.
"Many Jewish people attended the game between two Northeastern teams and 6700 took our tracts. One man came by and claimed that he was a 'real Jew' and that Jesus was going to score three touchdowns for his team. Even those who just walked past us knew what we were about and who we thought would be the real Winner."
New York branch responds to Giants' Victory in record time!
Branch leader Josh Sofaer reports:
Like many of you, we were shocked and amazed when the New York Giants won the Super Bowl. Watching the game together was a branch event, but for us, the actual game was only part of the excitement. No sooner was it over than we all looked at each other and said, "OK, so what's the broadside going to say?" We knew there would be a parade . . . lots of people lining the streets . . . and a great opportunity to draw people's attention to Jesus.
Monday afternoon we sat down to brainstorm. We had lots of ideas . . . some good and some . . . not as good! We settled on a title and theme, and by 8:00 pm, the broadside was written and illustrated. Missionary Larry Stamm and intern Dave Liebman worked through the night into the early morning hours to print 10,000 of the new broadside tracts. (Did someone say high-speed printer? It doesn't always work that way!) But they persevered and we were ready for the parade.
The various shades of gray that are typical of Manhattan mornings had brightened considerably as the streets were lined with red, white and blue clad people and banners to honor the Super Bowl Champs. Ten of us met the crowds for the victory parade at 9:00 am. For the next several hours, thousands and thousands of people streamed down the streets. Nine thousand of the passersby took our tracts.
I was proud of our team in New York. In less than 24 hours, we responded to the Giants' victory in a way that pointed to Jesus. One of the best compliments of the day was actually more of a grunt. "A Giant Win! ARUGHHYEAHHH!" Comments like that keep us going."
Susan Mendelson reports: "In the midst of the vast crowd, I saw a familiar face pass by. I hollered out, 'Joanie!' and sure enough, she turned around! I identified myself and she remembered. Before I knew Jesus, I was very involved in the New Age movement. I lived in Dallas and Joanie led seminars that I regularly attended! I explained to her that in 1990 I had come to faith in Jesus and had been with Jews for Jesus for many years. She informed me that she now lives in New York. I asked about connecting; she said I could find her via her website. I have since e-mailed her and while she responded, she expressed no interest in Jesus. Nevertheless, I'm sure Joan is Jewish, and I would be so grateful to the Lord to have a ministry to her! Please pray that the Lord will open a door in the near future where we can get together and discuss Him."
Larry Stamm adds, "It was a lot of fun being at the ticker tape parade, planting gospel seeds. I loved it when a fellow believer took a broadside and excitedly said to me, 'I can't believe you're out here! This is great!' I replied, 'Yes it is . . . and Jesus accomplished the best victory ever on our behalf.' Now that's something to celebrate!"
Click here to see the broadside created for the occasion, and here to see a few photos.
Please be praying for the following outdoor evangelistic opportunities
San Francisco
San Francisco branch leader Rob Wertheim is planning an outreach for the Chinatown New Year's Day Parade and Community Street Fair on Saturday, February 23. Approximately 500,000 will attend. Please pray for volunteers to help, and that many will see the tracts and think about Jesus.
South Florida
In South Florida one of the many events that attract "snowbirds" is the Coconut Grove Art Festival. It is celebrating its 45th year this Presidents' Day weekend, February 16,17 and 18. The festival attracts over 150,000 to view art from some of the finest artists and craftsmen in the world. We will be sharing the Messiah to whoever has ears to hear. We have a tract entitled, "A Thing of Beauty," which is perfect for this festival. Please pray for divine appointments, great conversations, cool weather and sowing a lot of seed.
All Over the World
Passover tours!
Please pray for our missionaries who are out presenting "Christ in the Passover" the first three weeks in March. This is a great opportunity for us to witness to Jewish people in areas where we don't normally have a presence, so please pray that churches will publicize the meetings well. All who come are sure to hear the gospel! Also, these tours are an important step in helping us meet brothers and sisters who might want to partner with us.
Since touring season is early this year, some of our missionaries may well face ice and snow. Please pray for safe travels, divine appointments with Jewish seekers and new friends for our ministry!
Please remember that this will be the first tour for our newer missionaries. Pray for calm hearts and good memories. Some of our missionaries will be presenting "Christ in the Passover" in languages other than their native tongue. Pray for all to be confident and well-spoken. And finally, some of our missionaries have been doing these presentations for 30 years. Please pray for them to remain fresh, and with unflagging enthusiasm as they bring this wonderful message to those who are willing to hear.
It would be a great if you could attend one of these presentations and let our missionaries know that you are praying for us. To see if we will be coming to a church near you, click here.
South Africa
You may recall in last month's RealTime we mentioned ads we place in bus shelters to raise a story. We showed a photo of a vandalized shelter ad.
The company from whom we leased the ads received pressure to take the ads, and the complaints they received were channeled through the Advertising Standards Authority. We complied with their ruling and our ads do not violate their standards; nevertheless, we've been told by the leasing company that they are removing the advertising and want to refund us for the remainder of the time. We have objected and referred them back to the ruling of the Advertising Standards Authority. Do please pray for a just outcome.

Labour councillors, local vicars, local residents, staff from the Whittington Hospital and Catherine West MP, have joined together to demand an end to Transport for London's (TfL) delays in installing suicide prevention barriers on Archway Bridge.
Gathering together at Archway Bridge this week (20th July), Islington Labour councillors led calls for decisive action to be taken by TfL to install the barriers as soon as possible. The calls follow another tragic death on 29th June, which saw the Leader of Islington Council, Cllr Richard Watts, declare "I am furious these vital safety measures have not been put in place."
Planning permission was granted in October 2015 by both Islington and Haringey Councils for the installation of suicide prevention barriers along Archway Bridge, which has been the scene of multiple suicides and attempted suicides. Delays have meant that TfL has failed to produce a compliant sample panel of the prevention barriers 21 months after permission was granted.
Cllr David Poyser, Labour councillor for Hillrise ward, said: "Every suicide is a tragedy, especially for the loved ones left behind, and our hearts go out to the families and friends of the victims of suicide. We know these barriers will work in stopping others from taking their lives. It is utterly unacceptable that TfL has not been able to get a compliant sample panel produced, and there can be no more excuses. The strength of feeling about this is clear to see and we need TfL to listen to the community and to make our bridge safe."
Cllr Kaya Comer-Schwartz, Labour councillor for Junction ward and Executive Member for Community Development commented: "The suicides at Archway Bridge could and should have been prevented. There is no justifiable reason why the barriers have not been installed, given that planning permission was granted 21 months ago."
Cllr Andy Hull, Executive Member for Community Safety, added: "This saga has been running for years, and as a council we have done all that we can to help TfL produce the barriers. We have even taken to offering to find manufacturers ourselves. Thankfully, the CCTV we have installed near to the bridge has helped us prevent several suicides, but clearly it is not enough as the tragic death a few weeks ago shows.
"I am pleased that a positive meeting took place this week between Islington, TfL and Haringey. Haringey are now managing the project and are responsible for its delivery, and we will support them in any way we can to ensure the barriers are installed as soon as possible. To help speed-up the process, Islington has agreed to purchase specialist steel needed for the fencing."

Too busy to take in the debut of a new art exhibit? Not enough cash in the savings account to travel overseas and peruse famous pieces from the National Museum of Mongolia?
With its new Arts and Culture website and app, Google has given the world the ability to visit these museums and exhibits from the comfort of home.
The Arts and Culture App gives online access to tens of thousands of unique pieces. Google has partnered with thousands of museums worldwide, spanning more than 70 countries.
There are a few drawbacks to the app, including the inability to order art supplies and lack of a human touch. In spite of these minor issues, Google has also transformed art education, allowing students to recreate global treasures from a digital classroom.
Learn how to use Google Arts and Culture App for an interactive art education experience.
What is the Most Impressive Feature of the Arts and Culture App?
Most people are familiar with Google street view, which allows you to panoramically view specific cities and towns at the ground level. Thanks to the Arts and Culture App, this capability is now extended to museums.
Using the app, students can take a virtual tour of thousands of museums at the ground level.
Students may retain a small percentage of the information learned in an art history book. However, the experience of digitally touring a museum is a significantly more powerful learning tool.
When students view a piece of art, they can click on it and a detailed information box will appear. Students can then zoom in on the art to inspect and analyze important features.
What Information and Art is Available and How to Search for it
There are many ways to use the Arts and Culture App. When it is first accessed, the user will see featured stories and projects on both current and former classics.
The amount of information available is extensive and powerful. While a textbook has limits, the Arts and Culture App has the unlimited search power of Google behind it.
Search options include, but are not limited to; artist, museum name, country, style, color, timeframe, among many others.
For instance, simply search "Chinese Watercolors," and a multitude of exhibits, pieces, and related material will be available for consumption.
Ordering Art Supplies is Among the Few Drawbacks with the App
There are a few areas where the app has room to grow.
It could be a powerful tool to link the shopping capability of Google with the Arts and Culture App.
For instance, users could see what type of paint or material was used in a certain piece. The information box that appears would link to vendors that sold those art supplies used in the piece.
Other criticism is that sometimes broad-termed searches do not yield the expected results.
Moreover, the vast amount of information available leaves out the human touch. It is hard to decipher what is important or not.
Ultimately, the Google Arts and Culture App is still an amazing resource. There are far too many features to cover in one article. The best way to comprehend its complete capability is by getting hands-on with the app.

I am a proud native of High Point, North Carolina. I grew up in a single parent household, raised by my mother who taught me how to sacrifice for others. I attended Greater First United Baptist church where my Pastor, Tacuma Johnson, became an influential spiritual guide and male role model for me. I am truly grateful to the High Point neighborhood for its positivity, inclusiveness, and compassion, traits that molded me into the man I am today.
After graduating from Ragsdale High School, I attended the University of North Carolina at Charlotte where I majored in Political Science. Upon graduating, I immediately wanted to give back to my community by helping organize its citizens to address their real issues. I went to work for some key political campaigns in the state including Elaine Marshall for US Senate, Doug Berger for NC Senate, and Marcus Brandon for US Congress. Working closely with these public servants, I became inspired to make a run of my own.

Random Thoughts, Volume 27
1. I have a coin bank that looks like a giant can of "Slim Jims"….you know….the food snack. I throw my change in it until it is filled. It was full a few days ago. I picked it up and I was struck by how heavy it was so I weighed it. It came to 15 pounds of coins. I found out that my credit union has a machine that will count your change and give you a slip that you can take to the teller and there is no charge. It was $113.35. This brings the total amount of change that I've taken there in the 2 months since I got the news to $337.15. I think I have some kind of sickness.
2. A friend of mine observed that, with so many illegal immigrants from Mexico in the United States, there should be plenty of room in Mexico for Syrian refugees. Hey, I admit that was kind of a racist thing to say but don't get mad at me. I didn't say it. My friend said it. Upon request, I'll give you his email address and you can send hate mail to him.
3. The holiday that is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day just passed awhile back. He was a great man and a visionary. I'm willing to bet his dream did not envision the disappearance of the family unit in the United States.
4. How can black actors and directors boycott the Academy Awards because no one that is Black, Asian, or Latino was nominated for any of the major awards ? Isn't it even just remotely possible that not one of those minorities gave a performance or directed a film that was WORTHY of a nomination ? While we're on the subject, am I the only one that thinks that it's a bit hypocritical to boycott the Oscars while supporting BET (Black Entertainment Television) and the BET Awards where the only way you can win is to be black ? Uh-oh. I mentioned race. That automatically makes me a racist, right ?
5. The U.S. government has been telling my for some years now that the inflation rate is 2 to 3 %. I was at my local pub a few days ago. I like their French onion soup even though I haven't ordered it in a couple of years. The last time I ordered it, 2 years ago, it was $5 for a crock. The price in now $7. Math was never my strong suit but I think that would be around a 40%increase. Also, I bought a copy of my local newspaper about a month ago. It was $1 as it has been for years. The new price is $1.50. That's a 50% increase. 2 to 3 %….my ass !!!!
6. Thank God that the holiday season is over and we can get on to the more serious holidays like Valentine's Day and St. Patrick's Day.
7. I live in Delaware and we got clobbered by the recent snowstorm. I put a picture of my perfectly cleaned and clear shoveled driveway and sidewalk with the following caption, which people seemed to like; "What a great job, huh ? Even at my advancing age, I'm proud that I still have the strength, agility, stamina, fortitude, wit, common sense and ability to find a pen and my checkbook and write a check to the guy that did this wonderful piece of work."
8. OK. I'm writing thought #8 a few days after thought #4 and it's still on the TV. Apparently, many black actors are still planning on boycotting the Academy Awards. As the newsman was talking about the story, the picture showed Spike Lee at a podium. Right behind Spike was Al Sharpton. Al is supposed to be against any form of discrimination but, let's say someone murders a bunch of Japanese-Americans and it's counted as a hate crime. I guarantee you…..no Al. However, ANY event that seems to be a slight against blacks, real or imagined, and Reverend Al will get there faster than an ambulance. If there is a more racist man on the planet than Reverend Al Sharpton, I'm quite sure that I don't know who it is. Oh, wait, I mentioned race again so, by definition, it must be me, right ?
9. Srenea Willims is probably the most recognized female athlete in the World. She's ranked #1 in the World and there is a good reason. She is like a powerful leopard on the court. I watched her in the semi-finals of the Austrlain Open last night. It took Serena all of 20 minutes to win the first set 6 – 0 against the number 4 seed in the tournament. It took a little longer, 48 minutes to win the more competitive 2nd set 6 – 4. Serena is the Tiger Woods of women's tennis before Tiger's wheels came off. Tennis, like golf has 4 major tournaments every year and the Australian Open is one of them. Serena is going to play on Saturday in the finals match. When she wins, and she will, it will be her SIXTH Australian Open title and her 22nd major title tying her for the most ever in what they call the "Open Era", whatever that means. Margaret Court is considered to be the best women's player of all time with 24 major titles. Barring any injury or a sudden lack of desire to play the game any more, Serena will overtake Margaret for sure. It is a joy to watch an athlete at her absolute best completely dominate the other players in the World. Taking nothing away from Ms. Court, I'm pretty sure that Serrena's competitors of today's era are much better than the competitors of Margaret Court's era. Check your local listings for the televised times of the final match on Saturday
That's all I have for now. As always, thanks for reading. Please feel free to return to your normally scheduled lives.

In most of the times the sole proprietors are allowed to make their payments of the Tax returns. It is normally done on quarterly basis depending on how the arrangements have been made. A s a proprietor, you need to plan on making the donations to avoid extra charges at the end of the year. If you expect to have a refund, then you that means you have made a lot in terms of the taxes, instead of a refund you can have it to the next year. You should know a lot as you focus to get Tax refunds. If you know how to access hem, then you will get all you may demand. The following explain why the sole proprietor needs to get a tax refund.
Estimation of business pay taxes
The taxes which are payed when one does the business needs also to determine if a sole proprietor can have any refund. The proprietor, normally try to have the estimate of the taxes which they have to pay. This will give out all that they may demand to have as they may have the focus. This will also be determined by the incomed earned by him or her. It will help in knowing what one can pay as a tax. Depending on how you get your tax, you should try to know how it can be dealt with. This is the only way you can k ow if the sole proprietor is fit to have the tax refund as you may take it to be.
- Tax refunds seem to be the cash you denied to your business.
You do not have to seek the large refund, thus there is no need to take it to be your refund. You only need to ensure that you have an estimate of the tax which can be subtracted so that it can cover up with the liability. When you are getting the refund, you need to ensure that you look for your own ways of improving in your business. It is likely to be what you get, use it to ensure that you advance in your business. This will bring a lot to all you run as your business. It is the best thing which you need to look at as you may take it to be. If this is well done, then one can easily succeed to improve his or her business.
- Business can be bundled with the personal income
When you are a wage earner, an at the same time you are running your business, you need to know what you need to do. If you have the chance to do all this, then you will have all your tax income bundling as you may expect it to be. This should be what you have top plan for if you need also to make some bit of payments. This will be very helpful if you can succeed t meet all you think is your best. If you are able to do this, hen you will be on the right track.

Bet the farm
Three years after the release of Destiny, here we are with a whole new title that's framed as a direct sequel. Hopping to a fresh release was Bungie's best bet when it came to enticing new players into the fray while also catering to the wants of veterans, and so we're left with a very familiar but much improved follow-up. It's safe to...
About The Game
In Destiny 2, the last safe city on Earth has fallen and lay in ruins, occupied by a powerful new enemy and his elite army, the Red Legion. Every player creates their own character called a "Guardian," humanity's chosen protectors. As a Guardian in Destiny 2, players must master new abilities and weapons to reunite the city's forces, stand together and fight back to reclaim their home. The official Destiny 2 reveal trailer, "Rally the Troops," shows two of the Vanguard, leaders of the Guardians, inspiring the people of the last city in an impassioned (and occasionally sarcastic) call to arms. In Destiny 2, players will answer this call, embarking on a fresh story filled with new destinations around our solar system to explore, and an expansive amount of activities to discover. There is something for almost every type of gamer in Destiny 2, including gameplay for solo, cooperative and competitive players set within a vast, evolving and exciting universe.

It's been a while since I've posted about Halloween displays that I've seen so that's what I'm doing today. So far, the only place that I've seen any displays are at various Rite Aids and a tiny bit (2 displays) at KMart.
Let's start with KMart:
Kiss Nail Dress stickers.
The picture on the right is of the corner of the display that had a grouping of all 6 designs.
$6.99 each
ImPress press-on nails
6 designs, $7.99 each
Now, back to my usual...Rite Aid:
NYC Sweet & Devilish collection:
mascara (core) $4.99, 2 double ended liners, 2 sets of lashes $3.49,
highlighter duo $4.99, 2 lipstick duos $2.99, 3 polishes (center polish is a glow-in-the-dark) $1.99,

This post wraps up all of the Halloween displays that I've seen to date. I'm sure that later in the month and into October, more will start to appear. Out of all these displays, I've picked up a few things from only the NYC display. The nail stickers and press-ons are all cute designs, but rather than purchase them I might use the designs as inspiration to create my own :-). I am definitely looking forward to seeing what else appears from the various brands in the coming weeks.

The stroke restricts the blood flow to the brain.
A stroke usually causes drastic changes in the lives of the patient and family members. This condition often occurs abruptly mostly without any prior warning and can suddenly tear an active person away from life and is a painful experience for all those involved. They are suddenly confronted all at once with topics such as disability and care requirements and on top of this social and economic problems.
Stroke. Definition
What is a stroke?
By "stroke" we mean an abrupt ("out of the blue") loss of certain functions of the brain. The usual cause in most cases is a sudden disturbance in blood flow in the brain in which the affected parts are no longer supplied with oxygen and nutrients. The nerve cells in the brain which are however supplied with oxygen carried by blood, can die because of the lack of blood flow. All depending on which parts of the brain are affected, this can result in the loss of important everyday capabilities manifesting as paralysis, loss of sensation, speech or vision. When a stroke occurs both the main cerebral arteries and also the small vessels in the brain can be blocked.
Find all you need to know about a stroke.
The more information you have about what causes strokes and how to prevent them, the greater your chances are, even after a stroke, of staying courageous or even stopping it from ever getting to that stage.
A stroke is the 3rd most common cause of death.
In Germany every year between 160,000 and 250,000 people have a stroke. Around 20 per cent of patients directly affected by a stroke die within four weeks and over 37 per cent within a year. It is the most frequent cause of disability and the third most frequent cause of death after cardiac infarction and cancer. The costs incurred because of strokes are estimated to be around 10,000,000,000 € a year. These figures not only make clear how widespread strokes are, but also how important it is to be well-informed about this affliction. Because many strokes can be avoided through the right actions and precautionary measures.
Stroke. Symptoms
Everyone should recognise the symptoms which indicate a stroke:
- sudden paralysis of part of the body, an arm or leg or half of the face, unusual sensations in the limbs (tingling or numbness)
- sudden problems speaking with unclear, indistinct speech, problems understanding what has been said or complete inability to speak
- sudden visual weakness or blindness in one eye or on one side of the visual field (in a left or right direction)
- sudden double vision, blurred vision
- sudden feelings of dizziness with nausea and vomiting, balance and coordination problems
- sudden unconsciousness, confusion (in time, place or in relation to people)
- abrupt onset of a very severe headache (like a bolt out of the blue)
Usually those affected experience no pain during a stroke unless it is accompanied by a severe headache. For this reason many strokes, especially mild ones, go unnoticed. Conversely many people frequently fail to recognise a stroke in someone else.
Precursors to a stroke.
In around a third of all strokes there are warning signs, the so-called transitory ischaemic attacks (TIA), a transient disturbance of blood flow in the brain. With such strokes only lasting a short time, the blood clot immediately breaks up again, so that no brain cells die. The above-mentioned neurological deficits occur only for a few minutes and seldom last longer than one or two hours. They may however also last up to 24 hours. Transitory ischaemic attacks leave no lasting damage behind and the symptoms go away completely after a while.
Take the warning signs of a stroke seriously.
Important: These disruptions in blood flow, which herald a stroke, must be taken seriously. Every minute counts. Should you observe the above-mentioned warning signs in other people, bring the patient as quickly as possible to a hospital, because there is a real increased risk of a major stroke occurring, especially in older people and if there are lasting symptoms such as paralysis in one half of the body and difficulties speaking. Immediate medical treatment may possibly prevent a major stroke or at least limit complications and any other consequences.
Stroke. Causes
This is how a stroke develops.
The following different types of stroke are differentiated depending on their cause:
- Inadequate blood supply to the brain: In approx. 80 per cent of cases there is a blockage in a cerebral blood vessel, caused for instance by a blood clot. This causes inadequate blood circulation (ischaemia). This means that the supply of blood and oxygen is no longer adequate to certain regions of the brain. If the symptoms are transitory in nature then in most cases this is referred to as a transitory ischaemic attack (TIA). Here too rapid medical clarification is needed as there is a real fear that other circulatory problems may occur. Vascular occlusions arise because of the transportation of blood clots (embolisms), or because of localised vascular occlusion in the afferent arteries (arterial thrombosis ). In the case of a microangiopathy, changes in the small arteries in the inner brain cause less damage to the brain tissue
- Cerebral haemorrhages: In approx. 20 per cent of cases a stroke can also be caused by cerebral haemorrhages. When this happens blood penetrates at high pressure into the surrounding tissue of the brain from burst vessels, which have usually been damaged previously by arterial calcification. The cause is usually high blood pressure or a sudden tear in an artery.
- Subarachnoid haemorrhages: Two to five per cent of strokes are induced by subarachnoid haemorrhages. When this occurs there is bleeding into the space between the brain and the soft meninges (arachnoidea). This so-called subarachnoid space is normally filled with cerebral fluid.
- More uncommon causes: These may be inflammation of the vessels, spontaneous injuries or trauma to the vessels disorders of the coagulation system or the formation of clots in the venous sinuses ( sinus venous thrombosis).
Other causes of a stroke: Arteriosclerosis.
Ischaemic attacks can occur because of a blockage in a cerebral blood vessel because of arterial calcification (arteriosclerosis) on the inner walls of the vessel. This makes the vessel even more tightly occluded with severe restriction or even complete interruption of the blood flow to the brain.
Other causes of a stroke: Thromboses.
Vascular occlusion however can also be caused by a thrombosis. This occurs when as a result of arteriosclerosis a vessel wall ruptures. Then through the activation of the body's own blood coagulation system, platelets (thrombocytes) gather at the site of the wound for purposes of agglutination by adhering to one another. This blood clot or platelet plug (thrombus) thus formed increases in size until it completely blocks the vessel.
Other causes of a stroke: Embolisms.
Another cause for arterial occlusion can be an embolism. When this occurs a blood clot breaks free somewhere in the body and is carried to the brain in the blood stream. It can easily penetrate into the small vessels and get lodged there. The most common site for the formation of blood clots is the heart. Dysrhythmias, a fresh cardiac infarction, enlargement of the heart cavities, changes in the heart valves and a congenital hole in the septum of the heart are risk factors for the formation of blood clots. If the blockage in the vessel is not broken up in the first few hours, then the part of the brain supplied by the artery will die irrecoverably. Both the main cerebral arteries, which are approx. 2 - 5 mm thick and also their branches of only 1 mm diameter or less can be affected by an arterial occlusion. A blood clot does not need to be big to block an artery and cause a stroke.
Other causes of a stroke: Cerebral haemorrhage.
Cerebral haemorrhages occur because an artery bursts in the brain. The most frequent cause is continually high blood pressure over a long period of time, which has caused the small arteries in the brain to become stiff and brittle. They can no longer bear the pressure and they burst. Other possible causes are congenital areas of weakness in the vessels and disorders of blood coagulation.
Other causes of a stroke: Haemorrhages outside the brain.
Sometimes haemorrhages can also occur outside the brain and within the skull (subarachnoid haemorrhage). The most common cause are swellings (aneurysms) at damaged areas in the blood vessels mostly as a result of arteriosclerosis. They become increasingly bigger with the danger of bursting and causing internal bleeding. These 'bulges' usually cause no symptoms. Often they have been there for a long period of time already and are frequently only discovered by chance during a routine examination.
Risk factors for a stroke.
Anyone can have a stroke. However the risk increases with advancing age. About half of all strokes affect patients over 75 years of age. There are certain risk factors which cannot be changed such as gender (men are more at risk than women), age or hereditary disposition. Other circumstances on the other hand can certainly be influenced or changed. If several of these factors concur, then the risk is even higher.

Serious Enduring Business
When you start out in Internet Marketing if you plan to build a serious enduring business,you must put your roots down,and you'll build from the bottom up.
Probably the best form of online advertising is email advertising.
This form of advertising has been the primary form of advertising since the web became such an important marketplace.
Email marketing is a form of Direct Response Marketing.
Direct response marketing is a form of advertising which allows businesses and nonprofit organizations to communicate straight to a targeted customer.
There are many forms of direct response marketing but email marketing is the most important piece used in internet marketing.
Email marketing is all about collecting email addresses so that you acquire a customer and build a list.
The issue with many affiliate marketers is that they take a one-time-shot approach,and send a product owner a customer.
The affiliate may get a commission on the vendor's product,but the email address and customer now belongs to the vendor whose product the affiliate had been promoting.
The actual value of the abiding customer is much more valuable,than the front end sale and accompanying commission.
Recall,front end products are lower priced products at the front end of a sales funnel.
If you,as an affiliate,are not "cookied" at the front end sale, the subsequent sales go to the product vendor.
Some of the better license rights companies will keep your affiliate id associated with your referred customer for as long as the enquirer or buyer remains a customer of the license rights company.
This is an important question to ask before you join and partner with an established affiliate company.
Once you refer a customer,they're associated with you for life if you are cookied correctly.
You'll be cookied correctly if your affiliate company is a trustworthy and fair online platform.
Some marketers will send enquirers to their own optin page,even before they send them on to the product creator's landing page.
Can you see the value in this?
You'll have the customer on your own list,and they'll remain your customer as well as your affiliate company's customer.
It is very important to capture an email address,if you're an affiliate,if you are a vendor and have your own products,or you are a license rights holder.
Each online business standard has its own particular way of making money online,but email marketing and building a list is fundamental to building a substantial and abiding online enterprise.
Be it affiliate,vendor, license rights owner,or any combination of the three.
As an IMer or new IMer or affiliate you're probably familiar with making optin pages,landing pages,and sales pages.
If you're not familar you need to get familiar,at least with the process, as this is an essential part of building for list.
I'll refer you to one of the top page makers in the Industry it's called Optimizepress, go here for special discount, click or copy and paste, http://wpdiscounts.com/coupons/optimizepress/.
Bear in mind that Optimizepress integrates with the following autoresponders:
iContact InfusionSoft 1ShoppingCart
Office AutoPilot
Here's a free autoresponder that's very good,copy and paste, http://freefollowup.com/
You can build free landing pages at wix.com, but very professional landing pages are a must to capture leads.
Hence, you're better off partnering with an established platform.
If you're starting out however, it's always good to make landing pages,and get a feel for what goes into the process.
Optimizepress also works well with Google Analytics and Kissmetrics.
This recommendation is from solid online experience, and talking with and learning from the best online marketers,I'm not an affiliate of Optimizepress.
I want to be able to point you in the right direction, as I did not have the right people pointing me in the right direction at the start of my online marketing career.
There are so many paths to follow, it's obviously very important to get on the right one from the onset.
There are important platforms that've been online for over 20 years and they have landing page building totally automated and down to a fine art.
Keep in mind, you need a strong core business,and building your list with professional landing pages is the an absolute must.
If your determination is fixed, I do not counsel you to despair. Few things are impossible to diligence and skill. Great works are performed not by strength, but perseverance. Samuel Johnson.

A life-like synthetic dog is currently being developed by scientists for the use of medical training and practice for veterinary workers.
The creepy looking dog, which looks as if it has been skinned, will be used as a replacement to the old days of terminal surgery, where actual animals would be anesthetized, used for surgery practice for everything from "neutering to brain surgery," and then euthanized when finished.
"I do feel I carry that sin. I still feel guilty about it," said veterinarian and Vice President of SynDaver Lab, David Danielson.
The lab has produced a variety of different synthetic tissues, including human, and is now working hard on an array of training varieties for their synthetic dog, which includes features such as a real-time heartbeat and a circulatory system which allows the dog to bleed.
"SynDaver Canine is our revolutionary canine surgical simulator. Based on 20+ years of SynDaver research and made from water, fibers and salts, this model includes individual bones, muscles, organs, veins and arteries" explains their website. "The model supports 30+ common procedures and is basically like a large 3D jigsaw puzzle and may be refurbished indefinitely".
Each canine will cost around $28,500, with around twenty models set to be donated across the globe to various veterinary colleges. SynDaver is also working on a number of full-scale human models for surgery training purposes that have the ability to lose limbs.
